IDC PlanScape: AI in the Government Datacenter — Paths to Success

Abstract

This IDC study provides a detailed analysis of how AI is being used for the management of government datacenters and some of the paths government agencies can explore if they are looking to leverage AI for this purpose, especially if they are looking for a positive return on investment.

"It's fair to say we are entering an era where AI and DCIM will become forever entwined for managing government datacenters," said Shawn P. McCarthy, research director for IDC Government Insights. "The insights that can be gained and the potential for intelligent machine learning — to monitor issues and autoaddress problems — means that AI for datacenter management will be a hot investment area for the next decade."
